Elimination Chamber: Australia (known as No Escape in Germany) was a 2024 professional wrestling event produced by the American company WWE. It was the 14th Elimination Chamber event and took place on Saturday, February 24, 2024, at Perth Stadium in Perth, Western Australia. The event aired on pay-per-view (PPV) and via livestreaming and was held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. This was WWE's first event to be held in Australia since Super Show-Down in October 2018, and the company's only event in the Asia–Pacific region in 2024. This was also the third consecutive Elimination Chamber to be held outside of the United States as well as the first to take place in an outdoor venue.
The event is based around the Elimination Chamber match, a type of multi-person elimination-based Steel Cage match in which championships or future opportunities at championships are at stake. The 2024 event featured two such matches, one each for the men and women with wrestlers from both brands in each, and the respective winners earned matches for the Raw brand's men's and women's world championships—the World Heavyweight Championship and Women's World Championship—at WrestleMania XL. The men's eponymous match was won by Raw's Drew McIntyre, while the women's, which was the opening bout, was won by Raw's Liv Morgan. Three other matches, including one on the pre-show, were also contested at the event. The main event was between two Australian natives where Rhea Ripley defeated Nia Jax to retain the Women's World Championship, which was the first time women main evented a WWE main roster PPV and livestreaming event since WrestleMania 37 Night 1 in April 2021.

Background[]
No Way Out was first held by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) as the 20th In Your House pay-per-view (PPV) in February 1998. Following the discontinuation of the In Your House series, No Way Out returned in February 2000 as its own PPV event, thus establishing it as the annual February PPV for the promotion. It has been held every year since, except in 2016, generally in February. The concept of the event is that one or two main event matches are contested inside the Elimination Chamber, either with championships or future opportunities at championships at stake.
Announced on September 21, 2023, the 25th Elimination Chamber event, titled as Elimination Chamber: Perth, was scheduled to take place on Saturday, February 24, 2024, at Perth Stadium in Perth, Western Australia, Australia, and featured wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. This marked the first Elimination Chamber event to be held in Australia, and the third to be held outside of the United States, after the 2022 and 2023 events, which were held in Saudi Arabia and Canada, respectively. This also marked WWE's first event to be held in Australia since Super Show-Down in October 2018, and the only WWE event in the Asia–Pacific region in 2024. This was also the second Elimination Chamber event to have a subtitle named after its host city (the first being last year's No Way Out of Montreal), and to take place in an outdoor venue. The event aired on pay-per-view worldwide and was available to livestream on Peacock in the United States, Binge in Australia, and the WWE Network in most other international markets. Tickets went on sale on November 10, 2023.
In 2011, the event has been promoted as "No Escape" in Germany as it was feared that the name "Elimination Chamber" may remind people of the gas chambers used during the Holocaust.
The event comprised five matches, including one on the pre-show, that resulted from scripted storylines. Results were predetermined by WWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands, while storylines were produced on WWE's weekly television shows, Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown
